Burton Hill Elementary School partnered with the Westworth Village Police Department to host a penny drive on campus. Students and teachers contributed pocket change over a three-week period and raised an amazing $4,900! After the total was tallied, B.H.E.S.'s principal was hosed down by a fire truck as a fun way to celebrate the fundraiser.
